Description Manuel Hiebel 2013-02-24 16:36:43 CET 
from the report.bug

* bestKernelPackage (-desktop): kernel-desktop-latest
* selecting kernel-desktop-latest-3.8.0-2.mga3.x86_64

then

* packageCallbackChoices: default choice ('vboxadditions-kernel-3.8.0-server-2.mga3') from vboxadditions-kernel-3.8.0-server-2.mga3,vboxadditions-kernel-3.8.0-desktop-2.mga3 for kmod(vboxsf)
* replacing kmod(vboxsf) with vboxadditions-kernel-3.8.0-server-2.mga3
* selecting vboxadditions-kernel-3.8.0-server-2.mga3-4.2.6-11.mga3.x86_64
* requiring dkms-minimal[*],kernel-server-3.8.0-2.mga3,kernel-server-3.8.0-2.mga3[*] for vboxadditions-kernel-3.8.0-server-2.mga3-4.2.6-11.mga3.x86_64
* chosen dkms-minimal-2.0.19-30.mga3.noarch for dkms-minimal[*]
* selecting dkms-minimal-2.0.19-30.mga3.noarch
* chosen kernel-server-3.8.0-2.mga3-1-1.mga3.x86_64 for kernel-server-3.8.0-2.mga3[*]
* selecting kernel-server-3.8.0-2.mga3-1-1.mga3.x86_64

So in final I one the two installed

(added thierry in case it's more an urpmi/installer/meta-task/whatever bug)
Comment 1 Manuel Hiebel 2013-03-05 21:29:29 CET 
Setting to blocker, as:
 there is no entry in grub for the kernel-server,
 there is two useless entry in this grub,
 the kmod-vbox is installed but usable, 

this bring bad feel in release reviews.

Priority: Normal => release_blocker

for kmod(nvidia-current), and with an initial apposite choice of kernel

Summary: vboxadditions-kernel-3.8.0-server-2.mga3 selected instead of the desktop one for kmod(vboxsf) => not the same *-kmod-kernel-version (server/desktop) selected as the bestKernelPackage for kmod(*)
Source RPM: kmod-vboxadditions => kmod

Comment 4 claire robinson 2013-03-08 12:58:01 CET 
In bug 9285 this problem was apparent as installing an extra unnecessary kernel when the installer was installing the proprietary nvidia driver.
Comment 5 Manuel Hiebel 2013-03-12 12:21:21 CET 
Created attachment 3605 [details]
urpmi --debug --auto --no-install "kmod(vboxsf)"

I don't know if that help, seems packageCallbackChoices changed to replacing, could it be an urpm regression ?
